Wowww, what a special wedding!

It’s 3 days after and I’m still excited about how beautiful this day really was. From the morning preparations at their house in Belmont to the amazing ceremony at the Holy Virgin Cathedral – the day was a photographer’s delight.

It didn’t hurt that the weather had cleared up on Sunday. There were pockets of showers as I was driving up in the morning but the clouds had mostly succumbed to the sun. We had time to hit a few photo shoot locations in SF and the day had a great end at the Fandorin Restaurant in Burlingame.

I am so happy for Julia and Sergei. Thank you for inviting us to share these moments with you.

Happy Valentine’s Day!!!

While most people say we need more rain, and I agree, it certainly sucks to be in the middle of a weekend-long downpour! Tomorrow�s intimate wedding in San Francisco, however, promises to put smiles on everyone�s faces. With guests coming from around the world it�s really promising to be one to remember.

Not sure yet if any outdoor settings will be possible for some bride and groom time, but with so many beautiful indoor possibilities in SF we�ll just make the best of it.

Every cloud does have a silver lining� I just found this beautiful scene in front of my window.

Sometimes we realize how lucky we are to live in the Bay Area. There are many different cultures, traditions, and people that combine to make this a very diverse place on earth. On Saturday we had the honor of being a part of the most beautiful Armenian wedding.

The nuptials took place at the St. John Armenian Apostolic Church in SF and the reception was held at the Scottish Rite Masonic Center. Angelica was wearing an amazing dress with embroidery; Yuriy’s sense of humor and dance moves will not soon be forgotten.

One of the highlights of this wedding was how much dancing took place at the reception hall. It seemed that everyone from age 2 to 92 was really out there enjoying themselves.

Congratulations Angelica and Yuriy! Thank you for letting us be a witness to your love.
